FAST -- X6 platforms deliver better performance for I/O-hungry applicationssuch as analytics and database and save 40% or more with innovative flashtechnology1

AGILE -- X6 platforms can host multiple generations of technology andreduce acquisition costs by 25%2 or more with fit-for-purpose modular design

RESILIENT -- Meet the demands of enterprise workloads; get 3x thememory and increase system availability

1Based on savings from server and storage consolidation which includes lower hardware and software expenditures

2More than 25% lower acquisition cost is based on a comparison of an x3850 X6 (using the modular rack design) vs a traditional rack design with no modularity. Based on projected Q1 2014 pricing of x3850 X6

configuration with 2 Compute Books, Storage Book with 1.2TB SAS, dual 1400W power supplies, 10GbE SFP+ networking, and no IO Book Options.

Standard x86 servers will see memory speed lower as moreDIMMs are populated

Each processor has 8 channels

Each channel supports up to 3 DIMMs

Results in 24 DIMMs per processor

As you add more DIMMs to each channel, the Intel architecture will lower the memory bus speed from 1333Mhzto 1066Mhz (20% reduction) for workloads over 1TB(assuming 16GB DIMMs)

IBM eXFlash Memory Channel Storage offer the fastest flash responsetime on the market

200GB / 400GB

As more eXFlash DIMMs are added, IOPSincrease, yet latency is not negativelyimpacted.

performance and granular capacity growth

Unlike memory, storage devices are remote to theprocessor

Therefore, transactions are not performed in parallel

As a result, response time suffers significantly

Adding more storage only compounds the problem since allof the IOPs get delivered through a single IO hub

With x3850 X6 and x3950 X6, design a data center that grows vertically,not horizontally and manage your growing needs within a finite space

Get Bigger, not more with each new generation of servers

Traditionally More Servers.More Cost.More Overhead. Gen1 Gen2 Gen3

X6Innovation

Upgrade withLower Cost,No Overhead. Gen1 Gen2 Gen3

With each technology refresh, traditionally data centers add servers more complexity, more capital cost.

With X6, refresh only the Compute Books at each technology refresh,reduce capital cost, eliminate operational overhead (networking,storage, etc).
